Introduction
This is a 3D Maya Animation Assignment.
I will show you how I create a 3D animation from character design to video production.
Character Design
Since I do not want to create a robot-liked character,
I choose the dwarf who looks more similar to a human.
In order to create a more unique character,
I added a flower in the hat of the character.
I want the character be active,
living in the forest.
Therefore, he dresses as a plant.
Also, I have to give a life to the character.
I designed 5 poses for the final character design.
Space and Composition
We are required to complete 3 sets of Orthographic drawings with top, front, side and perspective views for the roomscape design expressing different story event for the final film.
Colour and Lighting
We are asked to apply the principles of ‘Colour and Lightings’
to enhance the roomscape interior environment and design the lighting effects.
We would create an atmosphere and established a Dramatic event scenario for the final project.
Camera & Storytelling
After designing the character and the scene,
we learnt the principles of cinematography applying camera faming and angle of view associated with camera motion and fundamental types of shots to tell a story.
